The foundation started the program with a presentation of the Charter to the twenty members. Then these twenty people made a plan towards exercising community responsibilities focusing on environmental responsibility and disaster preparedness. Then a series of activities were conducted like building of forest nursery, clean-up drives, participation in an anti-incinerator campaign, and the like. To make other community members and other local network like the Church, local government, NGOs, and individuals informed on the actions of the organization, Buklod Tao is publishing and disseminating a bi-monthly newsletter called Responsibilidad. The actual implementation of programs opens other opportunities. For example, a community leader started distributing vegetable seeds to the organization because he saw that families are involved in livelihood programs. There is a need to make a mid-term reflection on the activities and to digest the activities in the context of the Charter. The group will surely have another perspective of the Charter after the series of community activities. |
